Angling World Wide

Trout and Grayling Fishing Package holidays in Wales

From the rolling and meandering Wye and Usk in South-East Wales , through to the rugged and tumbling Welsh Dee in North Wales ; Wales is spoilt with angling opportunities for Trout and Grayling. Whether it’s fishing a mayfly hatch, march-brown hatch, or deep nymphing for winter grayling, Angling Worldwide has got it covered!

Wales ’s prime trout and grayling rivers are available on package breaks, be they guided or unguided, through Angling Worldwide throughout the year (12 months of the year!). These would include the mighty Usk, Wye, Teifi, and Welsh Dee, through to tributaries such as the Monnow and Irfon, to name but a few. Not sure which one would be best for you? We are here to help and have extensive knowledge of the rivers in question, having fished the rivers for countless years and running package breaks on many of them for over 10 years! We can even work a few days fishing around a pre-booked family holiday, a welcome break. Contact us with your requirements, and we’ll do the rest.

Wild trout reach, and are caught, over 4lbs in these rivers each and every season with wild brown-trout of over 2lbs not uncommon. Whether you’re a ‘dry-fly’ person or a ‘nympher’, good sport can be had on all the rivers offered through Angling Worldwide. Most of the rivers hold a very high quantity and quality of grayling, a most sporting fish and a welcome distraction when the trout are sulking. Grayling over 3lbs are caught and reported on these rivers annually, with many possessing the potential for British records!

Fishing Season

Trout; Although starting in March and ending in September on most of the rivers we cover, peak sport would be in the months of April, May, June and September. However, March can fish well on some rivers, as can July and August.

Grayling; The grayling have a closed season from March until June. Between June and March sport can be prolific in almost any month, including the cold and short winter days of November-February. Dry-fly sport would be best in the months of September and late February, early March, with nymph fishing being successful throughout the season.

Accommodation

Can be tailored and arranged to your exacting needs. We can arrange anything from campsites, B&B’s, plush hotels,

	through to self-catering cottages. Contact us with your requirements and we will do the rest. Please note that cottages and self catering units should be booked several months in advance to assure availability – they book up fast, as can hotels and B&B’s.
	Fishing licences and permits
	A valid trout fishing rod licence (which also covers you for grayling) is necessary for all that undertake these packages. UK residents can buy these prior to their arrival, or within the fishing locality. We can purchase these in advance for visiting/foreign anglers, and include them in the cost of the package. Permits will be included in the price of the package and will be arranged prior to your arrival. We want to make your stay as enjoyable and stress-free as possible, ensuring that’s all you have to concentrate on is catching fish!
	Tackle
	Any rod between 8ft and 10ft with a line rating of between 3-6 will suffice for trout and grayling; ideally a 9ft for 5 line. Reels are to your preference. A floating line is all that’s required. Nylon in strengths between 2-8lbs should be carried. Our guides will provide flies for the fishing session and advice

you on set-ups and tactics (on guided days). Tackle is available on loan for those without suitable set-ups, and for those that don’t want the hassle of bringing fishing gear with them on holiday.

Flies

As recommendations, we would advise carrying the following patterns; clouser minnows or crazy charlies in smaller sizes (1-2 inches overall) with chain-bead or dumbell eyes are all that’s necessary. They should be tied on size 8 or 10 hooks, and incorporate white and silver. Flies incorporating ‘flashy’ materials work very well for shad, but some sombre patterns in olive and black should also be carried. Simple goldhead patterns work well too, with gaudy lures such as cats whiskers working well.

Clothing

chest waders are recommended, although wading above waist height is rarely necessary. Wading/rain jacket. A wading staff may be useful and buoyancy aids are highly recommended. For winter fishing a layering system is recommended, as are neoprene waders.

Travel arrangements

We can arrange a hire car from all major UK airports, with the nearest being Cardiff and Bristol for the rivers Usk and Wye. Transfers can be arranged from railway stations to your accommodation, at an extra cost. The fishing guides can pick you up and take you back to your accommodation (on guided days), should you require this service.
